(International) Tree Fa rm P rog ra m Get Three Million Acres During 1957 Washington The industry sponsored Tree Farm program of growing timber as a crop on taxpaying lands gained 3,399,700 acres in 1957, reach ing a total of 44,947,917 acres in 45 states. The acreage increase, which reflects steady growth of the 17-year-old private enterprise plan to assure the nation an everlasting wood supply, was announced by C. A.

Holt, of Creswell, Ore., will be awarded the medal by the Ministry of Health and Social affairs in recognition of his "humanitarian devotion" to the welfare of Korean moth ers. Surprise Ceremony The decoration will be awarded as Holt is preparing to take a new group of some 85 orphans to their new homes in America. It will be pre sented during a surprise cere mony. It is being awarded as an indirect result of a United Press story on Holt's activi ties in finding homes for Kor ean orphans in the U. S. The story, written by U.P. staff correspondent Bill Force said that Holt had given most of his modest fortune and en dangered his health to carry on the program. Holt suffered a heart at tack during a trip back to the United States last year with a plane load of Korean chil dren. The newest group, who range in age from three weeks to 14, will leave Seoul Wed nesday by Chartered Korean National Airlines plane for San Francisco. Most of them will go to homes in Califor nia and Oregon. OSC Official Sees Good Timber Market Corvallis An optimistic long-range market outlook for Douglas fir timber has been reported by Gary Sander, Oregon State college forest products marketing special ist. Sander said demand for timber may increase by 25 to 40 per cent by 1975, ac cording to a recent estimate by the U. S. department of agriculture. The estimate may prove to be too conservative, however, if population in creases are greater than now anticipated, the department's forest service noted. Using the more conserva tive population estimates, Sander said demand for tim ber is expected to outrun sup ply within a few decades) par ticularly for preferred' soft wood species such as Douglas fir and for high quality timber. can Forest Products Indus tries, which sponsors the American Tree Farm System. The year-end figures showed 11,163 certified tree farmers, including, individual landowners and forest indus tries themselves. Oregon Total Florida, first state to pass the 4 million-acre mark in certified Tree Farms, main tained leadership with 4,519, 798 acres. Other leaders in clude Georgia, 3,909,193 acres; Oregon, 3,861,832 acres; Alabama, 3,832,694 acres; Washington, 3,775,916 acres; Texas, 3,630,695 acres and Arkansas, 3,422,667 acres. Mississippi continued to lead in the number of Tree Fdrms enrolled with 1,177. Texas dedicated its 1,000th Tree Farm in November. Oklahoma became the 45th state to "activate the Tree Farm movement. With formal launching next spring, Dela ware will become the 46th Tree Farm state. "Industry's Tree Farm movement is a fountain of prosperity which flows into every avenue of the nation's economy," said J. C. McClel lan, AFPI's chief forester and assistant managing director. "Not only does tree farming provide the wood Americans need for more than 5,000 every-day Items, but it means jobs for thousands of workers; better food and cover for wildlife; greater opportuni ties for forest recreation; also watershed protection and soil conservation." Floor Tiles Made Frqm Wood, Cork Are Being Studied Corvallis Floor tiles made from wood and cork particles are being studied by Oregon's Forest Products Re search center in Corvallis. C. H. Burrows, wood tech nologist in the manufactured products department at the state-owned research agency, reported considerable pro gress in developing service able floor coverings from mill residues. Ponderosa pine hammer milled planer shavings are raw material for the wood particle tiles. Ways of attain ing good water resistivity and smooth surface quality are being checked. The tiles have an attractive color and a plea sing particle pattern. Indi cations from preliminary tests are that the wood tiles could be a successful flooring material. Floor Tiles Floor tiles also are being made from Douglas fir bark cork. Various binders, cork fractions, and pressing condi tions have been tried. Physi cal properties of the cork tile compare favorably with cork floor tile already on the mar ket. A complete report will be available soon from the Forest Products Research cen ter. Several publications avail able on request describe pre-, vious work on particle pro ducts at the state laboratory, Burrows said. . Particle boards offer an ad vantageous outlet for mill res idues in Oregon. Eight plants now are producing, and an other will be in production soon. 50-Mile Range To Test Missiles Pt. Mugu, Calif. (in The Navy hopes to have a 500-mile California to Utah firing range ready by August for testing of its Regulus II guid- ed missiles. Plans for the range, extend ing from the area of San Ni cholas Island off California to the Army's Dugway proving grounds in Utah, were an nounced Wednesday by Rear Adm. Jack P. Monroe, com mander of the naval air mis sile test center here. The swept-winged, . super sonic Regulus 11 missile would be launched from Ed wards Air Force Base In the California desert and from ships in the Pt. Mugu test range. Monroe said the missiles would not carry warheads and would be controlled in flight by chase aircraft cap able of overcoming the guid ance system of the missiles and taking direct control. The control aircraft can blow up the missile in case of emergency through a built-in destruction system. . The admiral said an inland range was necessary because land points were required to check the accuracy of the mis sile L. its flight and fall. Regulus II, a long-range version of Regulus I, has been operational in the fleet for more than a Vear. Salem (IP) Public Util ity Commissioner Howard Morgan said that Pacific Pow er and Light Company plans j to extend its competitive rate i areas into rural districts south, east and west of The Dalles have been suspended for a period of not more than Daily's U-Drive Medford Airport ' Acquittal Ordered In Lumber Fraud Portland (IP) Federal District Judge Gus J. Solo mon Wednesday ordered a judgment of acquittal for Robert F. Middleton, Red ding, Calif., and William S. Ingram, Oakland, Calif., two lumber brokers named as de fendants in the Bailey Lum ber Company fraud case. Judge Solomon said the two should be released as de fendants on the basis of in sufficient evidence to convict on mail fraud charges. The trial started here Tuesday for Richard G. Bailey, Mrs. Laurel Macy, a bookkeeper for the now defunct Bailey firm, Norman Eggiman, an accountant, and the two brokers who were dismissed as defendants Wednesday. The firm is accused of using false invoices and bills of lading to bilk banks out of some $260,000. cerning law enforcement against writers of spurious checks. He brought out that law enforcement authorities would not have the record they have today if it had not been for cooperation of mer chants. At the same time ha said there are businessmen"8t fault because of unwillingness to sign complaints or testify. The FBI man added that there are too many who want to use law enforcement as a col lection agency. ; Handled by Check Mentioning that the great est percentage of financial transactions today are hand led by check, Williams said that "no good" checks pre sent a problem not only be cause of the investigation re quired but because persons who have passed them are af fected just like narcotics addicts. The FBI agent spoke of the amateurs who operate locally and of the advanced or professional operators who travel from state to state and make their living by passing checks. Williams pointed out that many "professionals" have had experiences in trades and use these in their operations. He remarked that country clubs, where fraudu lent check passers may obtain cards in locker rooms, serve to afford credentials for false identity. The speaker told of the fraudulent check file and la boratory of the FBI In Wash ington, D.C., and means of tracing writers of bad checks by handwriting, type of paper and type of violation. He said also that markings made by individual check writing de vices differ like fingerprints. Williams stated that some spurious check passers haye such salesmanship ability that they would make good livings if they chose to fol low legitimate occupations. ' Law enforcement against crime costs more than $2 bil lion per year Williams report ed to Kiwanians. That am ounts to $1.29 per person. He said that for every dollar which goes to a church, 12 go to combat crime. One out of 16 hemes are affected by crime annually Williams said, adding that 60 per cent of the persons arrested and finger printed last year had previous crime records. Z Williams said the Medford police department is recog nized as one of the best in the state and added that law en forcement officers in other communities look to Medford Chief Charles Champlin fpr advice and counsel. : Court Records MUNICIPAL COURT Tommy Joe Merton. illegal pos session of intoxicating beverages, $20. nrra Wm1v Thrnnn, 411rfaT possession of intoxicating bev erages, zo. . possession of intoxicating bever ages, zo.
